London and much of Britain endured a tense night with no major raids after a day of patrol activity over the English Channel. A single unidentified town reported flare and incendiaries, while Luftwaffe units engaged in aerial patrols and one enemy fighter was shot down. British bombers targeted Wilhelmshaven Brest and the Ruhr overnight with unclear official confirmation.
